imho the scratches on the frame ears are pretty normal for 1917 DWM's. Most, if not all, unmessed with 1917 DWM's show scratch marks on that area, some more than others. 1917 was the peak year in DWM pistol production and some final finesse in the finishing department was sacrificed as a result.
Sideplate looks redone, however. I think this gun has simpy been touched up here and there.
